Arnel Pineda loves to rock. In case you had any doubt about it, that’s also the name of the show Pineda brings to Boardwalk Hall at 2 p.m. on Sunday, July 25.Pineda says anyone who loves music will enjoy his concert with Rachelle Ann Go and the Ammo Band, which focuses on music he listened to while being raised in his native Philippines.

“It’s going to be a lot of fun and action-packed rock ‘n’ roll,” Pineda says in a phone interview from Disneyland, where he is enjoying downtime between shows.

It’s fitting that Pineda is speaking from Disneyland, as he has enjoyed quite a Cinderella story. He was on the verge of retiring from the music business after struggling in near obscurity for a quarter-century.
